Scrub Me Mama, With A Boogie Beat

In Harlem there's a little place where everyone goes
To see the way a washerwoman washes her clothes
If you like boogie-woogie rhythm, she's got a beat
Let the boogie-woogie washerwoman give you a treat

On every afternoon at one the sessions begin
And all the boys from all the bands come down and sit in
They sit around and knock each other out when thеy play
While the boogie-woogiе washerwoman washes all day

Rubbley-ub-dub, that's just the way she rubs
Rubbley-ub-dub, that's just the way she scrubs
Rubbley-ub-dub, she wears out all her dubs
She rubs and rubs her knuckles right down to the nubs!

Rubbley-ub-dub, that's how she kicks it off
Rubbley-ub-dub, she keeps it nice and soft
Rubbley-ub-dub, till someone hollers on
"Scrub me mama, with a boogie beat!"

You really ought to visit there if you've never been
It doesn't cost a penny, just come down and walk in
If you like boogie-woogie rhythm, you'll get a treat
Let the boogie-woogie washerwoman give you the beat!

Rub rub rub rub, a-rubbin' all day
She's a-scrubbin' a boogie-woogie rhythm all day!
Scrub, rub, a-washin' all day
Scrub me, mama with a boogie beat!

Scrub me mama, scrub me clean
And let me dream till (scat)
Rubbley-ub-dub, that's the way she scrubs
Rubs rubs rubs, rubbin' along
Singin' a boogie woogie song

Toot-toot-toot-ley-ah-dah!
That's how she kicks it off
Ti-diddley-ah-hah!
She keeps it nice and soft
Ti-diddley-ah-hah!
To someone, all is all
Scrub me mama, with a boogie beat!

You really ought to visit there if you've never been
It doesn't cost a penny, just come down and walk in
If you like boogie-woogie rhythm, you'll get a treat
Let the boogie washerwoman give you a treat
Scrub me, mama with a boogie beat!
